Yamaha LJ6 A.R.E. Handcrafted Acoustic Electric Guitar

The handcrafted Yamaha LJ6 A.R.E. grand-auditorium acoustic guitar boasts a solid Engelmann Spruce top, complemented by rosewood back and sides. This Yamaha guitar is versatile and suitable for solo or group performances. It’s also stage-ready, thanks to its built-in Yamaha Zero Impact pickup system.

Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.)
The solid Engelmann spruce top is treated with A.R.E., an original wood reforming technology developed by Yamaha, that manipulates the molecular properties of wood to create an acoustically ideal condition. This innovative process enhances the sound of a new guitar, making it sound like it has been played for years. The Acoustic Resonance Enhancement process achieves this by precisely controlling temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure.

SRT Zero Impact Pickup
Yamaha’s SRT Zero Impact Pickup system employs individual piezoelectric elements for each string, faithfully reproducing the guitar’s dynamic sound and giving it a prominent presence on stage or in the studio. This unique passive pickup design minimizes its impact on the guitar’s tone, preserving its traditional appearance and full acoustic resonance. 

5-Ply Neck, And Neck Profile
The LJ6R A.R.E. boasts a novel 5-ply neck crafted from rosewood and mahogany, contributing to its richer sound. This integration of the neck, head, and body into a single unit enhances the overall sound quality. Additionally, new string spacing, string height, fingerboard binding, and neck taper result in a unique neck shape that better suits contemporary traditional players. This design provides a stable feel and smooth playability throughout the entire neck.

Grand Auditorium Body Style
The LJ6's Grand Auditorium body style delivers a wide dynamic range, a low-end with strong presence, and a crisp tone that accommodates a wide range of playing styles including strumming and finger-style picking. Additionally, the LJ6 has a more rounded lower bout and a tighter waist, giving it a curvier, more streamlined appearance compared to the squarer, broad-shouldered dreadnought guitar.

The Yamaha LJ6RD acoustic guitar offers you handcrafted quality, a warm and balanced tone, instant played-in comfort, and stage-ready performance with its SRT Zero Impact pickup system, all with an easy-on-the-wallet price. Contact Andy's and order yours today.
